뿌리응애류는 양파, 마늘, 생강, 백합 등의 뿌리를 가해한다. 최근 백합재배지에서는 질경이모자이크바이러 스(Plantago asiatica mosaic virus, PLAMV)에 의한 잎의 괴사 피해가 확산되고 있다. 태안 백합재배지에서 PlAMV 가 감염된 백합을 채집하여 구근을 조사한 결과, 식물체 당 뿌리응애 100개체 이상이 발견되었으며 Rhizoglyphus robini로 동정되었다. 이 종이 PlAMV의 보독여부를 확인하기 위해 채집된 R. robini에서 RNA를 추출하여 RT-PCR로 진단한 결과, 모든 개체에서 PlAMV가 확인되었다. 본 연구는 뿌리응애가 백합 구근 뿌리를 먹으면서 만든 상처를 통해 PlAMV가 전염될 수 있다는 가능성을 제시한다.

Honey bees are crucial pollinators for agricultural and natural ecosystems, but are experiencing heavy mortality in Korea due to a complex suite of factors. Extreme winter losses of honey bee colonies are a major threat to beekeeping but the combinations of factors underlying colony loss remain debatable. Finding solutions involves knowing the factors associated with high loss rates. To investigate whether loss rates are related to Varroa control and climate condition, we surveyed beekeepers in korea after wintering (2021–2022 to 2022–2023). The results show an average colony loss rate of 46%(2022) and 17%(2023), but over 40% colony loss before wintering at 2022. Beekeepers attempt to manage their honey bee colonies in ways that optimize colony health. Disentangling the impact of management from other variables affecting colony health is complicated by the diversity of practices used and difficulties handling typically complex and incomplete observational datasets. We propose a method to 1) Varroa mite population Control by several methods , and 2) Many nursing bee put in hive before wintering.

국제적으로 신품종과 품종 육성자의 권리가 지적 재산권으로 보호됨에 따라 화훼작물의 경우 국내 민간종묘에서 품종 개발이 거의 이루어지지 않아 농촌진흥청 원예시험장(구 국립 원예특작과학원) 화훼과에서 1992년부터 본격적으로 품종육성 연구가 시작되었다. 2017년 재배면적 44ha, 판매액 93.6억원 인 주요 난류의 하나인 심비디움은 다른 화종에 비해 육종년 한이 길어 2002년에 ‘뷰티프린세스’ 등 4품종이 육성된 후 2017년까지 51품종이 육성되었고, 농촌진흥청 연구비 지원으로 지산영농조합법인에서도 ‘핑크레이스’ 등 26품종이 육성된 바 있다. 이렇게 개발된 품종은 농가에 보급되어 분화나 절화 로 유통되고 있어 최근에는 국산 품종에 대한 재배농가의 인지도가 높아지고 있다. 2009년부터 2017년까지 aT화훼공판장 에서 거래되고 있는 국산 심비디움 품종들의 분화 거래내역을 조사한 결과, 농촌진흥청 개발 51품종 중 21품종이 지산영농 조합 개발 26품종 중 7품종이 1년에서 5년동안 거래된 것을 확인하였다. 국산 품종 거래 수는 2010년과 2015년을 제외하고는 2,568~5,693분으로 총 심비디움 판매량의 1.5~2.1%를 차지하였다. 심비디움 거래량의 65.2~97.6%를 차지하는 꽃대 2, 3, 4대 가격을 비교한 결과, 국산 품종이 외국산 품종에 비하 여 최고가는 낮았지만 평균가는 높았고, 최저가는 훨씬 높았다. 결론적으로 aT화훼공판장 거래가를 기준으로 국산 품종이 외국산 품종과 비교할 때 품질이 양호하였음을 알 수 있었다.

In the retail environment where online-shopping malls are growing, offline store are find it difficult to survive simply by selling their products. As a result, offline retailers are trying to find unique services that are appealing to their customers. In such a market environment, marketing strategies that stimulate the five senses other than the sight can be an alternative. Therefore, this research is aimed at observing the effect of the senses on emotion and purchase intention in a fashion retail context. A two by two experimental design (existence vs non-existence of scent x existence vs. nonexistence of eating chocolate) between subjects was used. A total of 120 participants were randomly assigned to the four situations, and they were asked to complete the questionnaires about emotion and purchase intention. The survey data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 23.0, and results are as follows. After a two-way ANOVA, we observed a statistically significant effect of the scent service on pleasure and purchase intention the sweet offering service on purchase intention. Moreover, when scents service and sweet offering service were provided at the same time, the highest purchase intention was obtained among other services. In addition, we studied the effects of emotions on purchase intentions, and the pleasant emotions resulting from the services have a positive effect of on purchase intentions.

Urbanization is one of the leading causes of habitat loss, habitat degradation, and fragmentation. Urban development negatively affects biodiversity. This study aimed to clarify the change of butterfly communities on effect of urbanization in urban green areas. Butterfly survey was conducted using the line transect methods from April to October in 2012. A total of 59 species and 1,465 individuals of butterflies were observed in four urban green areas: Namsan Park (NS), Ewha Womans University (EW), Bukseoul Dream Forest (BD), and Hongneung Forest (HF), and natural forest: Gwangneung Forest (GF). The category of land use around study site was determined based on GIS data. Species richness and abundance of niche breadth and habitat type in urban green areas differed significantly from those in GF. Estimated species richness and species diversity (H’) in four urban green areas were significantly lower than those in GF. Species richness and abundance of forest interior species and specialist were positively correlated with paddy, field, and forest, whereas those of forest interior species and specialist were negatively correlated with urban area and road. Butterfly communities in four urban green area differed from that in GF. The result suggests that the decrease of paddy, field, and forest associated with increase of urban area and road negatively influences species composition and changes butterfly communities.

To profile the proteome in porcine plasma, blood samples were collected from adult male barrows and those plasma were retrieved. For the depletion or pre-fractionation of high-abundance proteins, plasma samples were treated with commercial kits. Then, protein profiling was initiated using one and two-dimensional electrophoresis. Proteins were spotted and then identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF and LC-MS-MS. In the results, more than forty six proteins were identified and the reference map was constructed. The pre-treatment for the removal of high-abundance proteins caused the changes in 2-DE images and some of the proteins were newly uncovered after the most of high abundant proteins were removed. However, it is expected for further steps necessary to identify more low-abundance proteins that may contain potential bio-markers.

Here, we present an approach of blood plasma proteome profiling and their comparisons between the young and the adult pigs as prerequisite for the identification of bio-markers related to the health conditions, growth performance and meat quality. To profile the proteome in porcine plasma, blood samples were collected from 19 young piglets and 20 adult male barrows and the plasma was retrieved. Then, protein profiling was initiated using one and two-di-mensional electrophoresis. Proteins were spotted and then identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF and LC-MS-MS. In the re-sults, more than thirty-six and twenty eight protein spots were selected in young piglets and adult pigs, respectively and twenty three proteins were identified. The proteome profile images were compared between those ones using Image Master Version 7.0. The image of expressed proteome showed that most of proteins from plasma of young pig-let separated clearly and concentrated in 2DE display compared to ones from adult. Image analysis in detail was car-ried out to look for the specific proteins related to age progression. It demonstrated that the characteristics of proteome expression could be distinct to their age stages. Further investigations needed to proceed to understand the age de-pendent change of protein conformation and biological meaning of those differences in proteome expression between young and mature adult pigs.

본 연구에서는 polyvinylalcohol(PVA)의 hydroxyl 작용기와 sulfosuccinic acid (SSA)의 carboxylic acid 작용기의 반응을 통하여 열가교된 PVA막을 제조하였다. 설폰산기를 함유한 SSA는 PVA 매트릭스에 대한 가교제의 역할뿐만 아니라 수소이온의 전도도를 높이는 역할 모두를 수행하였다. PVA의 가교도(degree of crosslinking)는 SSA의 함량으로 조절하였고 가교밀도(crosslinking density)는 극성 및 비극성 용매를 이용하여 계산하였다. Xylene 및 benzene과 같은 비극성 용매를 사용한 경우 가교밀도는 SSA함량에 따라 증가하였다. 그러나, 물과 methanol과 같은 극성 용매를 사용한 경우 가교밀도는 SSA함량 20%까지 증가하다가 그 이상의 함량에서는 설폰산기의 영향으로 감소하였다. 가교도와 확산계수, 기계적 물성 및 전도도, 메탄올 투과도 등에 대한 PVA막의 특성을 평가하였고 이들 특성은 SSA함량에 의존하였다.

내부산의 탈거제로 탄산나트륨을 함유하는 유화액막의 거동을 묘사하기 위하여 수학적 모델이 제시되었다. 젖산의 회분식 추출 실험 결과가 모델의 계산 결과와 비교되었는데, 모델의 계산 결과는 담체농도, 탈거제농도, 교반속도, 처리비와 같은 변수의 영향을 잘 예측할 수 있었다. 유화액막의 주요 문제 중의 하나인 에멀젼의 팽윤을 줄이기 위하여, 액체 파라핀, n-데칸올, 사이클로헥사논, 스판-85 같은 막 첨가제가 사용되었다. 사용된 모든 첨가제는 팽윤 정도를 줄이는데 어느 정도 효과가 있었다. 사이클로헥사논은 팽윤을 줄일 뿐만 아니라, 젖산의 전달 속도를 크게 증가시키는 것으로 관찰되었다.

The objective of this study was to rapidly evaluate fatty acids in a collection of foxtail millet (Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv) of different origins so that this information could be disseminated to breeders to advance germplasm use and breeding. To develop the calibration equations for rapid and nondestructive evaluation of fatty acid content, near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRs) spectra (1104-2494 nm) of samples ground into flour (n=100) were obtained using a dispersive spectrometer. A modified partial least-squares model was developed to predict each component. For foxtail millet germplasm, our models returned coefficients of determination (R2) of 0.91, 0.89, 0.98 and 0.98 for strearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and total fatty acids, respectively. The prediction of the external validation set (n=10) showed significant correlation between references values and NIRs values (r2=0.97, 0.91, 0.99 for oleic, linoleic, and total fatty acids, respectively). Standard deviation/standard error of cross-validation (SD/SECV) values were greater than 3 (3.11, 5.45, and 7.50 for oleic, linoleic, and total fatty acids, respectively). These results indicate that these NIRs equations are functional for the mass screening and rapid quantification of the oleic, linolenic, and total fatty acids characterizing foxtail millet germplasm. Among the samples, IT153491 showed an especially high content of fatty acids (84.06 mg g-1), whereas IT188096 had a very low content (29.92 mg g-1).
